C, stating that Red Cross- knitting is being held up somewhat pending a survey of the wool situation with reference to gov ernment needs. As most chapters in this division have already received the full amount of yarn for their present knitting allotments, the division office will expect the Completion of the al lotment as given. - The division ware house, acting under instructions" from national headquarters, will not sell any more yarn until further notice, but will doubtless be authorized to release yarn to chapters before the present knitting allotments are com pleted, r Red Cross knitting is needed and the needs of the Red Cross will be taken care of by the War Industries Board next to the needs of the government itself.

' ' HEAVY CREAM SHIPMENTS EXPRESS AGENT SAYS THE HIGH MARK HAS BEEN REACHED. Indicates Herds Being Increased In stead of Diminished Ah Prcv- . ; iously Indicated. J ' - YOU SHAKE IN A GBEAT NATIONAL SAVING WHEN YOU EOT On the Into train lust night, there was loaded out for Walla Walla and Seattle about seven truck loads of cream cans, 25 on a truck, or about 175 ten-gallon cans of cream, or, in round numbers pumbors, 17,50 gal lons. t Wednesday night a duplicate ship ment was made, practically to the same points, so it would seem, after all, the dairy farmers up the branch and along tho main line of the O.-W. R. & N. between La Grande and Ba ker, have decided' to increase their shipments of milk, or cream, and not diminish the herds of cattle, hs it had seemed to those who had been investi gating the matter.' , It was stated by men who colled at different dairy farm in this and ad joining counties, that on account of the present high price of feed, many dairymen -were drying up their cows and selling them to the butchers. It is surely more encouraging to the government that this is not going to be the cuso in the near future, as many millions of cans of condensed milk must go across the Atlantic to our soldiers in France. For cream shipped in these quantities means that that much more sweet milk can go to the condensers for army use, as well aa for home consumption. Express Agent L. B, Smith stated that these two shipments alone have set the high mark in cream shipments this season. J I'IKilj M A K K 8 KltltOX HOL'8 I'ltUDICTlOX lti:iAltl)l(i I.AWYEIt. . "OVISK XMK Tor." Hugh P.
